adult child (2)

As if she had been eating well, her sharp jawline and skinny cheeks are gaining weight as if they were in season.

However, my shameless personality was still the same, and the middle-aged man made noise as if he still owned me.

[If you turn the subject a bit, your son recently got a new nickname. After the US recruitment offer, he is openly called the $100 million boy. That’s one step above the Six Million Dollar Man. I think it will be a little different joy this time.]

[This is not even 100 million dollars short of our Yongsu.]

[Then, how much do you think is appropriate for your father?]

[The number of back digits should increase rather than the front digits.]

If it’s unfortunate, it’s that I’m experiencing a series of emotions instead, and if it’s fortunate, it’s that there’s a rebroadcast mark on the top right corner of the screen.

Well, it’s quite different when it comes to a birthday present.

After that, as I stared at the TV for some time, manager Park Yoo-jin picked up an excuse in a puzzled voice.

“I didn’t intentionally try to hide it. It was also broadcast last night, and I was trying to avoid disturbing my mind ahead of the dispatch… Still, I took action.”

“What action?”

“Well, if you look at the rules alone, it would be about legal responsibility. When recruiting an awakened person, a contract is usually drawn up that prohibits media appearances along with compensation. My father-”

“Will he listen?”

“I did give a strong warning. Apparently, there are some tricky parts to deal with legally related issues.”

“So you understand?”

“… We are narrowing the differences.”

A horn that narrowed the disagreement.

He is already hardened and will not accept it.

I don’t have a flexible mind either, but the author of the father has a firm subjectivity that he won’t accept even 1 out of 100 times.

yes.

Rather than subjectivity, the words egotism and stubbornness fit better.

“Im Seong-min, I will go into the examination room.”

“Uh, yes.”

In the meantime, as I turned my attention to the call of the nurse, I felt the hardened indoor atmosphere.

No matter how blunt it was, I could easily infer that I was in a conflict with my father, and everyone just looked at me while frowning.

“Tong, narrow. don’t go in I said earlier, I said no. The machine is bad.”

“… … .”

At least Toya came out of the examination room and grumbled, but when I met my gaze, he blushed and turned his head away.

Suddenly, an elder from raid 1 stepped forward and attempted an unnecessary intervention.

“It’s nothing embarrassing. It’s nothing new to have problems with your parents. Right now, even if it’s only me, it’s worse than not having it.”

“Did oppa also have problems during his awakening?”

Unlike me, the girl always asks Park Geon-young well.

“I usually get along that way, but I’m a little different. You know, you got married early, didn’t you?”

“Why?”

“A person with this ability can find a good mate, but they paired up arbitrarily. I had an accident at a young age, and my wife was not from a well-to-do family.”

Soon, eyes with a strange sense of kinship fly in, but the ups and downs of life are given differently to each individual.

The ensuing response was left to Lim Seol-ha’s tongue.

“Did you cut ties just for that reason?”

“It was almost cut off. But to be honest, it might have been better to just cut it off. There are things that can never go back to how it was between people.”

“But… We are family!”

“Yeah, sure.”

The red-hot cheeks are full of a sense of absurdity, but Park Gun-young finishes it with a shy expression.

It was because it was too late to explain to someone who hadn’t experienced it.

“… It must have been hard.”

“I’m fine with it now. Compared to when it was difficult, it has gotten better, and it’s going to get better in the future, right? The dispatch salary comes out, too.”

“yes.”

“So let’s all forget about Yongsu’s father. You don’t have to talk about it, do you? Rather, I should think about what I will do when I receive my allowance. I’m trying to be a father for the first time in a while… … .”

And obviously, I am no different.

One after another, he showed his ugly words to his father, who continued to help himself, such as saying that there was not enough food to eat, let alone toys.

Somehow, he has abundant abilities, but his ability to empathize has hit rock bottom.

“Have you ever been grabbed by the scruff of the neck and thrown away?”

“… uh?”

“You say you’re a bad dad. Have you ever locked a doorknob with a wire to prevent your son from escaping, punched him in the eye, or kicked him in the stomach? Have you ever broken a bone?”

“… … .”

“Looks like none. Do you gamble?”

“If gambling… … .”

“Are you gambling?”

“… no.”

“I have to work harder to be a bad dad. If possible, drink a lot of alcohol.”

“… … .”

Don’t open your mouth in the first place.

As I watched the person called my father talk, my heart was twisted and I shot at him, telling me to do whatever I want.

As a result, a deep silence fell inside the room.

It seemed like he only confessed a couple of words, even if a day and a half would not be enough to vomit about his father’s behavior.

“Mr. Geonyeong, in case there is a misunderstanding, if I have to add that, that’s a compliment.”

“Yes… Would you?”

“of course. How clumsy Mr. Yongsu is. It’s a compliment. The compliment is clear. If you look at the bottom line, it means that you are a good father, right? I mean don’t die. My older brother is good enough, I am proud of him as a younger brother, etc. It’s because I’m not good at expressing it, but if you look at the inner meaning, it’s actually close to praise.”

“… hahahaha.”

Soon after, Park Yoo-jin, wearing a splint on his right hand, hurriedly intervened, but as I listened, I wasn’t sure if he was trying to protect me or insult me.

Then, suddenly, he turns his head to me and apologizes for his hasty remark, but the aforementioned was a topic that should be brought up when the two of us are alone.

Therefore, I cut off the end of the word about that.

There was no point in talking too long.

“I’ll say it again, I really, really didn’t try to pass it off as if it didn’t exist. It’s a rather complicated issue to discuss in a short time, so-”

“Tell me how to deal with it.”

“… Well, there are two options. Either go hard or go soft, or go to one of the two. The former is to take legal action, and the latter is to adjust quietly so that there is no rupture. The difference is how far you reveal the situation.”

Maybe it’s because it’s a problem that I’ve never thought about before, and various assumptions and complicated mindsets are buried in my head.

I should have killed him then.

I feel like I’m going through a lot of hardship because the goddess is blocking it.

<It’s a problem I can’t help with. As a parrot, I only receive messages through fragments, but I don’t know exactly what the goddess’ intentions are.>

“… … .”

<I’d rather do whatever I want for now.>

Of course, the conclusion was clear.

“Don’t worry about my position, I will go hard. Please don’t let me see you again in any way.”

“… Yes.”

Looking back, it’s all in the past, but when I recall how the occasional violence and abusive language affected me… It didn’t make sense to go in there.

At this moment, just looking at the subtle displeasure lingering around, it was like that.

I hate him and at the same time find him terrifying.

It wasn’t just the feeling of being disliked or bad, it was closer to the disgusting side that made you shudder.

The next morning, the Seongbuk-dong mansion.

Immediately after the hospital examination, the aftermath went smoothly.

It was only a matter of hard work to break through the reporters camped on the first floor, but the administration ended the case with a written investigation without a single month.

No matter what the media said about China and Korean-Chinese, I stayed in the mansion and devoted myself to personal training.

Although his father, who was fighting cockroaches for janitorial status, appeared on TV and entertainment articles (?) one after another, hurting his heart, but when he remembered the price he would pay later, he was able to accept it.

Plus, the other side of my room.

The iron box and scraps of paper on the table also help to forget your worries. Befitting its chunky size, the inside of the box contained custom armor and gauntlets.

It is a birthday present from the chairman of HT Group.

“It weighs 15 kilograms, so it’s quite heavy, but it’s built-in with strength-enhancing technology and a self-amplifying device, so you won’t feel any burden when wearing it.”

“Yes.”

“The gauntlet was studded with 3 of the finest jewels, and the outer shell was made of Igricus shell instead of a normal alloy to make it lighter. It’s more like a glove than a gauntlet, right? As the gem output has increased, try it out enough before going into battle.”

in the midst of this

Park Yu-jin explained how to use it, but my eyes were directed to the bankbook next to it, which the parrot was holding in its claws.

<One hundred billion! Ten balls! 10 to the power of 10! You are a beast, a beast with a lot of money!>

“… … .”

<Come on, let’s rejoice! With this money, you can even ride a spaceship! The moon goddess… no Exclusive meeting with the goddess of the moon!>

However, the meaning of the series of gifts is too clear to match the joy of the bird’s head.

It means don’t even think about going to America.

He told me not to go because he would treat me kindly if he accepted it more mildly.

Also, there is no need to send back what was given to me, so I start putting on new armor.

It feels heavy as soon as you lift it slightly, but the artificial muscle layer stretched to the spine, both forearms, and both legs was very satisfactory.

“… Uh, Mr. Yongsu. Are you going to leave right now?”

“Do you have a schedule?”

“It’s Christmas Eve. There is no official schedule.”

Unfortunately, something was certain.

The severely brightened complexion evoked uneasy feelings.

“… Any other schedule?”

“It’s one day a year, but you can’t miss it like usual, can you? So voila~ HT Group rented out an entire hotel suite!”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… Call it a bonus and write it.”

“Oh no! Is it because I can’t write? Besides, there are people waiting.”

It was only for a moment that an expression of regret came to mind.

With a small exhalation, Park Yoo-jin confesses the reality that he does not want to believe.

“Seolhana, Toya, Kunyoung, and other students from the training academy are attending, more than anything… The B-7 raiders will come too. In this situation, if the main character falls out… … .”

Some of the conversations I had with the elderly come back to life in my faint memories.

You said you had to work as Team B of HT Group.

However, the question still remains, why are the B-7 Engineering Corps members who have not met each other at all?

“Don’t you want to go? When I met you before, I liked you from the bottom of my heart.”

“… Who do you like?”

“C-9 team members. Do you remember Mikyung Yoon, the tanker, Sanghoon Kim, and Eunjoo Lee, the DPS? After going through a large wave, I was promoted to B tier. I heard you really want to see it there too. I wished him a happy birthday, and he said he would discuss the next mission as well.”

“… … .”

damn it

There was no reason for refusal.
